While the manhunt is in progress

Chapter 78
When Song He arrived at the place Liu Hui mentioned, he was surprised to find that it was a high-end community, and Liu Hui and the other three were standing at the door of the community.

Song He and Ma Xuexian hurried forward to inquire, and Wu Xuerui told Song He the results of their visit with a complex expression.

It turned out that Wu Xuerui knew that the visit to the old man was likely to be fruitless, so she focused the visit on the married daughter, and this is the current residence of the daughter of one of the families.

After finding the woman, Wu Xuerui quickly explained her intention, but the woman's reaction afterwards surprised Wu Xuerui and others.

"That means she gloated a little?" Song He concluded after listening to Wu Xuerui's description.

"Xiao Song, you are right, she just gloats." Liu Hui nodded and said, "According to her, she is the one with the worst family background among her peers, but she was the best married woman back then."

Song He Wenyan had a faint guess in his heart, and asked, "And then?"

"Looking at her appearance at the time, these words should have been held in her heart for a long time, so we tricked her out." Liu Hui sighed a little: "Among the people who got married back then, as we guessed, there were a few women and the deceased They are related, and they are all relatively outstanding in appearance and family background."

"So she is gloating now because she escaped a disaster back then?" Song He understood and said, "Then she should have said a lot."

"It's really quite a lot. She said that as far as she knows, there are three." Liu Hui nodded and said: "Among them, the one she remembers most clearly is the daughter of the old village party secretary. It is said that she married in a hurry not long after the incident. and the old village secretary’s family moved out soon after.”

"Basically in line with our inference." Song He nodded and said: "It seems that the next step is to find the daughter of the old village party secretary. Have you figured out the specific whereabouts?"

"Basically, she knows a rough idea." Liu Hui shrugged with a smile, "It's just that it's in Niuwei Town, but I don't know the details."

"Oxtail Town?" Song He raised his eyebrows in surprise, looked at Wu Xuerui and said, "Fang Yuanping's territory?"

"Yes. Director Fang's jurisdiction." Wu Xuerui corrected Song He with her usual expression.

Song He smiled, never expecting Fang Yuanping to meet again so soon after self-exile.

However, he was confident that, except for Wu Xuerui and Ma Xuexian, no one could see that Fang Yuanping was the one who caused Fang Yuanping's misfortune, so he said indifferently, "It seems that Lao Lu is going to visit."

Liu Hui nodded: "I've already called Lao Lu, and the results are expected to come soon."

"Then hurry up and eat something, maybe we have to catch up in the afternoon." Ma Xuexian suggested that Song He would get hungry easily after eating a lot.

When the five of them had finished their meal, Lu Jie's phone call also came, saying that he had found the detailed address of the old village party secretary's daughter.

Without hesitation, Song He and the others joined Lu Jie and split into two groups.

Song He, Wu Xuerui, and Lu Jie went straight to Niuwei Town, and the rest continued to visit the remaining target women in Yucheng, trying to get more information.

In the afternoon, the three finally arrived at Niuwei Town, and Song He also felt a little uncomfortable with the architectural style outside the police car: "Is this a town? It's not much better than a village, right?"

"The scope and population are indeed at the level of a town, but the economic conditions are much worse." Wu Xuerui explained.

"It's not just about the economic conditions." Song He looked at the pedestrians on the street and felt that there was a sense of twilight on everyone's face, and there was no sense of vitality like in the city.

Moreover, there are very few young people on the streets. Even if there are, they don’t give people a good feeling and seem very impetuous.

"Niuwei Town is a merger of Niuwei Village and several surrounding villages, but these villages have had disputes with each other for various reasons. If the disputes can be resolved when they first arise, there will be no major problems." Lu Jie obviously did. Through work, I understand clearly: "It's a pity that the person in charge of the town government at that time had some relationship with a village. No matter how to solve it, it was difficult to convince the public, and the matter was dragged down as a result."

"So after the new person in charge takes up the post, the conflicts will be hard to get back." Song He was stunned.

When the three arrived at the town police station, there was already a police officer waiting.

"Hello, who is Police Officer Lu Jie?" The waiting police officer was in his thirties, ordinary-looking, and very enthusiastic.

"I am." Lu Jie stepped forward and said, "Hello, what do you call me?"

"Zhang Bin." Police officer Zhang Bin patted Lu Jie's shoulder familiarly, and said with a smile, "Shall we take a break or go directly?"

"Go directly." Lu Jie said concisely.

Zhang Bin nodded, got into the police car and pointed the direction. After a while, he arrived outside a simple courtyard with a single door.

Boom boom boom!
"Liu Erniu! Open the door!"

The iron gate looked impressive when photographed by Zhang Bin, attracting the attention of passers-by.

"I'm coming."

Soon a muffled male voice sounded, the door opened in an instant, and a middle-aged black-faced man with a dull and honest face walked out.

When Liu Erniu saw Zhang Bin, he was stunned: "Officer Zhang? Why are you here?"

"What? Don't let us in?" Zhang Bing sullenly said, "Then shall I talk to you here?"

"Oh, no, no. Officer Zhang, please come in quickly." Hearing this, Liu Erniu quickly opened the door and let a few people in.

Zhang Bing led Song He and the others into the room, and greeted the three people whom the director personally asked to be treated well.

Zhang Bin explained to Liu Erniu the purpose of his visit in a few sentences, and Zhang Bin said solemnly: "This is a police officer from the city. He made a special trip to ask your guy to find out the situation. After a while, you can let your guy say whatever the police officer asks. Don't ask nonsense."

"Hey, I see." After hearing this, Liu Erniu didn't dare to look at Song He and the three of them. He just thought that Zhang Bing could tell him like this, it must not be a simple person, so he hurried to call his wife.

After a while, a middle-aged woman appeared in front of the three of them. She was plainly dressed, with rough skin, and her eyes were evasive. She looked a bit flinching when she looked at the person. When Wu Xuerui looked at her, she quickly lowered her head without any hesitation. Dare to look people in the eye.

Seeing this, Song He took a closer look, glanced at Liu Erniu with a frown, winked at Zhang Bin and said, "Officer Zhang, we are going to ask Guo Hui a few questions. Please take Liu Erniu out of the way."

"Okay, you ask." Although Zhang Bing couldn't quite understand the meaning in Song He's eyes, he nodded unequivocally and led Liu Erniu away.

Seeing this, Wu Xuerui nodded at Song He, looked at Guo Hui and said, "Guo Hui, don't be nervous, we just ask a few questions, you can just tell the truth."

"Oh, okay, okay." Guo Hui obviously relaxed a little after Liu Erniu left, but she still shrank a little.

Wu Xuerui asked gently: "When did you marry Liu Erniu?"

Guo Hui hesitated for a moment: "17 years ago."

A few minutes later, Guo Hui lowered her head, twisted her fingers together, and said nothing.

Wu Xuerui looked at Guo Hui helplessly, thinking about how to speak.

The reason why the situation became like this is because Wu Xuerui's question began to involve the deceased in the cowshed case.

Song He shook his head, suppressed the emotion in his heart, quietly glanced at Wu Xuerui and Lu Jie, and walked aside.

Seeing this, the two followed up and came to Song He. They saw a serious expression on his face and concluded in a low voice: "Liu Erniu has a tendency of domestic violence, while Guo Hui has a strong self-protection mentality. But when listening When it came to the issue of the deceased in the Cowshed Case, Guo Hui's expression changed very complicatedly, but the first thing that appeared was nostalgia and yearning, then resentment and unwillingness, and in the end all these emotions disappeared, and they all turned into fear and surrender."

"Nostalgia? How can there be nostalgia?" Wu Xuerui was taken aback for a moment, and instantly understood: "You mean that she loves the deceased."

"That's right." Song He nodded affirmatively: "In the current living environment, that memory is of great significance to her, and her subconscious will beautify this memory."

"So the method of inquiry is very important." Lu Jie understood Song He's meaning.

Wu Xuerui also understood, nodded and said: "I'll do it, but don't follow me."

After finishing speaking, she walked towards Guo Hui slowly, and gently held her rough and dark hand.
